MOTORS

Usually motors are arranged vertically on toy drones, however, due to its foldable design, the JJRC H37 Elfie drone has horizontally mounted motors. Such position of the motors allowed the manufacturer to make the drone much smaller.

Because of the horizontal position of the motor for transmitting rotation on the vertical axis, an additional gear is used.

Motors are mounted inside the arms, so in case a motor fails, the entire arm can be conveniently replaced. This is not a difficult task, as there are rays of sale assembly, plus screw. According to the maker, other types of motors will not fit.

CAMERA

On the front of the JJRC H37 mini drone is a small Wi-Fi FPV camera with an adjustable angle. You can manually adjust the angle, within the range of ± 15 degrees.

The built-in 0.3MP (480p) Wi-Fi FPV camera allows you to capture pictures and record videos with a resolution of 720 x 576 pixels.

The JJRC H37 doesn’t have a micro-SD memory card slot, so the captured pictures and videos are automatically saved on your smartphone/tablet’s internal memory. A 5-minute footage occupies about 23 MB of storage.

The videos are stored with an H264 format under the “JJRC” APP application folder. You need to convert the videos in order to watch them on your computer.

You can display the camera’s real-time video feed on a mobile device (smartphone or tablet) via the JJRC APP. The quality of live videos is pretty satisfying, so your kids will surely love the fact that they can now spy the neighbour’s dog with the Elfie drone.

BATTERY

The battery can be removed, fitting safely inside the case with a lid on the bottom of Elfie. The battery has a capacity of 500 mAh which allows Elfie to be flying in the air up to 15 minutes.

CONTROL

The JJRC H37 mini-drone comes without a remote controller and can be controlled only via a mobile device (smartphone/tablet). You can choose to control the Elfie mini-drone in two ways, using either the virtual joysticks on the screen of your mobile device or through gyro sensor.

You can navigate the flight direction of the drone with the right virtual joystick or via the mobile device’s internal gyro-sensor by tilting the device. Practically, the user can control the JJRC Elfie H37 drone like when playing a mobile video game, which means children will surely like this feature.

Finishing the flight with Elfie is never more simple, the user just needs to press the arrow-down button, and the drone will land and stop its motors.

The drone can fly both in Headless Flight Mode and FPV.

The JJRC APP allows its user to review pictures/videos right on the flight field. The captured files being stored on your smartphone’s memory you can instantly share them with your friends.

 

HOW TO USE IT:

Prior to your first flight with the drone, you need to install the JJRC APP application on your smartphone or tablet. After unfolding the motors arms, press the power button to start the drone and search for the Wi-Fi network labelled “JJRC–526E61”. The motors can be armed through the JJRC APP application by tapping the arrow "up." In the case of emergency, all the drone’s motors can be stopped instantly with the help of the “Stop” button.

Having an integrated air-pressure sensor (barometer) the JJRC H37 drone is capable of maintaining a very stable flight altitude.

For beginners, it is not recommended to increase the speed above 30%. When using the drone inside a house or an apartment it is advisable not to set the speed of more than 60%. The 100% speed rate is intended for outdoor flights only. At such speed, the JJRC H37 becomes fast and agiler.

Naturally, because of the Wi-Fi protocol, the live stream has some lag so it is not recommended to use the drone exclusively in FPV mode.

The control mode of the Elfie mini drone is set to virtual joysticks by default. Push the throttle stick (left one) up to raise the drone.

    8.How to determine the steering of a rotor?

• Solution: Rotors are usually marked with A, B or R. One method marks forward blades with A and inverted with B marking. On the other hand, blades with R marking are forward blades, while inverted blades do not bear R marking. Blades that rotate diagonally have the same steering, while adjacent blades have opposite steering.

9. How to judge the steering of a motor?

• Solution:
• Usually, a forward motor is with blue and red wires, while a reversed one has black and white wires. Motors with diagonal direction have the same steering, while adjacent ones have opposite steering.
• Sometimes on the motor surface can be found CW or CCW markings. CW refers to the forward motor, while CCW stands for reversed motor.
